MELLING, Antoine Ignace. Voyage pittoresque de Constantinople et des rives du Bosphore, Paris, Treuttel et Würtz, MDCCCXIX [=1819].

Antoine Ignace Melling (1763-1831) was a French painter and architect, son of a sculptor. He studied architecture and mathematics and travelled to Italy and Egypt. In 1784, Melling moved to Istanbul as attaché to the Russian Embassy and lived in that city for eighteen years. He was architect to Sultan Selim III and his sister Hatice, with whom he maintained a close relationship. Melling designed the gardens and the interior of Hatice Sultan's palace in Ortaköy, and the interior of the newly built palace in Defterdar Burnu, in neoclassical style, as well as jewellery and clothes. Melling's long-term stay in the Ottoman capital allowed him to experience the life of the Cort, and to draw views of Bosporus and its surroundings, as well as scenes from Ottoman society, in an impressive style. He returned to Paris in 1803, published his marvellour work and was appointed lanscape painter to emperess Josephine, Napoleon's wife. In 1812 Melling travelled to Holland; during his journey he produced a multitude of drawings and wrote many letters to his family. He later travelled to France, Britain and the Pyrenees. In order to prepare the publication of his drawings, Melling set up an engraving studio, with the assistance of the best engravers of the time. The excellent quality of this edition, in select paper, realized by the best typographers of the time was achieved thanks to Melling's diligence, an impeccable engraving and the originality of the drawings. In order to write the accompanying texts Melling worked and consulted with Lechevalier, P. Deval, Pouquevile, Lacretelle, Choiseul-Gouffier, Barbie de Bocage and others. The locations from which the landscapes were drawn are shown on the map. Later on, coloured versions of the engravings were also published. The Ottoman capital, its natural landscape as well as monuments and everyday way unfolded before the eyes of Europeans in an unparallelled way. As has been recently said, Melling saw Istanbul as an Ottoman citizen but was able to paint it as an insightful Western European. Written by Ioli Vingopoulou

(worn, hinges & upper front joint cracked, some light foxing, few short marginal tears to first 2 leaves, former owner's small rubberstamp on title). Second Edition. The Voyage Pittoresque was the result of the German painter Melling's travels in the Pyrenees region in 1821 and is illustrated with a fine series of aquatints based on his original sepia watercolours, depicting picturesque views of the mountains, waterfalls, villages, grottoes, thermal baths, monuments, villages, chateaux, &c. Melling's intention was to demonstrate that the beauty of the Pyrenees rivalled that of the Swiss and Italian Alps. The first edition, published by Treuttel and Wurtz in 1826-30, contained seventy-two plates, a portrait, and a map, while the present edition is complete with sixty-six plates. cfBrunet III 1591-92. cfGraesse IV 473.

Melling (1763-1831) was a painter, architect and voyager, born in Germany and raised in Alsace. At age 19, he traveled to Constantinople and became the Imperial Architect to the Ottoman Court, where he worked for 18 years. In 1803, he moved to Paris and was appointed landscape painter to Empress Josephine. In 1821, he was sent by the French government to document the Pyrenees and the 72 aquatint views in this work are based on the watercolors that he painted on his travels. The text was written by Joseph-Antoine Cervini. (Some examples are bound in an oblong format to match the text block.).

670 x 508 mm. (26 3/8 x 20"). 3 p.l., 10 pp., [63] leaves. Publisher's scarlet morocco by Buchbinderei Burkhardt AG, covers with gilt-rolled border, cornerpieces tooled in gilt, upper cover with gilt calligraphic Arabic centerpiece, lower cover with gilt central heraldic device, marbled endleaves, all edges gilt. With a portrait frontispiece of Emperor Selim III, 48 DOUBLE-PAGE PLATES, AND THREE DOUBLE-PAGE MAPS. � A virtually as-new copy. This is one of the deluxe copies of a modern facsimile of Melling's massive and magnificently illustrated work devoted to 18th century Constantinople, a book that provided the earliest interior views and plans of the harems and palaces of Sultan Selim III when it was published in 1819. The illustrations remain the best (and certainly most attractive) record we have of the city during this era in its history. Our edition was produced from a copy of the elephant folio first printing in the collection of the facsimile's publisher, Ahmet Ertug, with images faithfully reproduced in their original mammoth size (650 x 970 mm.). After his arrival in Constantinople in 1795, architect and painter Antoine Ignace Melling (1763-1831) was appointed imperial architect by Selim III. In the course of his duties, he designed and landscaped a seaside palace for Selim's sister, Princess Hatice, and produced these striking panoramic views of the city and its environs. After completing the palace and a number of other building projects for Selim, he returned to Paris and in 1804 issued a prospectus for this work. He established an engraving studio in 1809 to reproduce these drawings and began publishing the completed prints as a series of fascicles that were sent to subscribers. The last one appeared in 1819. The outstanding success of an exhibition of the paintings on which the "Voyage Pittoresque" was based earned Melling the rank of painter to the Empress Josephine. When "Voyage Pittoresque" was originally published, booksellers in England sold copies for �84, a huge sum for a book at the time. The original edition in pleasing condition now fetches between $75,000 and $100,000. Our handsomely bound, actual size facsimile offers an attractively priced alternative.

Antoine Ignace Melling, who was born at Karlsruhe in 1763 and died in Paris in 1831, studied painting and architecture. At the age of nineteen years he went to the Levant via the Archipelago, staying at Constantinople for several years. There he was introduced to the Sultan's sister by the Danish ambassador. She wished to renovate her palace at Ortakeui, and in 1795 Melling was appointed as architect. Melling was given the freedom of Selim III's palaces, including the Harem, and he produced several drawings of these properties. After completing a number of building projects for Selim, Melling returned to Paris in about 1803, where, in 1804 he issued a prospectus for the Voyage pittoresque. Publication eventually began in 1809, issuing over a number of years thirteen livraisons, being completed by 1819. The outstanding success of the exhibitions of the paintings on which the Voyage pittoresque was based earned Melling the title of painter to the Empress Josephine.

THE ATABEY COPY OF THE GRANDEST ENGRAVED VIEWS OF CONSTANTINOPLE, THE PLATES EDGE-BOUND IN THE RARE AND MOST DESIRABLE UNFOLDED STATE.

Melling (1763-1831), having studied architecture and painting, went to the Levant at the age of nineteen and remained in Constantinople for eighteen years. In 1795 he was charged by the Sultan's daughter to renovate her palace at Ortakeui. He was consequently granted access to the Sultan's palaces, including the Harem, Melling's sketches of which provided the earliest interior views. Having completed various projects for Selim III, Melling returned to Paris in 1803.

A prospectus for Voyage pittoresque appeared in 1804, but production did not start until 1809 and was not completed until 1819 after the appearance of the thirteenth livraison. The outstanding success of the exhibitions on which the work was based earned Melling the title of Painter to the Empress Josephine.
